    I’ve been seeing a lot of online commercials about
    This new handheld radio. You can talk several states
    Away, clearly, no subscription required. In the commercials
    They don’t use call signs. What is this, I’m thinking they
    Must be using satellites. Any thoughts on this.
    Thank you.

    I’m sure I’m not the only one watching this
